Default New ISF!

Hi everyone!
I have been lurking the forums here for a while now and have decided to pull the trigger on an 08 ISF with 12K Miles! I have enjoyed performance cars from afar for some time now but have finally decided to make the jump. The best part of all this is that i get to drice it from NJ all the way back to DC Any advice on the car would be greatly appreciated amd welcomed. Hope to learn and have fun with you all for quite some time.

I know, and thank you! I was looking at one with 24k in Chantilly, VA but someone bought it right after I left to go back home and think things over. Called around to all the local dealers and got a lot of "There is no ISF, BUT I can put you in a brand new IS250 F Sport!" Smh at dealers who don't even know their own brand history. I did get a few really good salesmen on the line though. If anyone is looking for a Chevy in the VA area go to Pohanka and ask for Israel. Hell of a guy. Let me gun the ISF on 66.

Welcome and congrats. I picked up a 2011 with 14k on it. Love it and its mostly a weekend driver. Guys on here daily these bad boys with no issues. Have fun and make sure to warm up tires before punching in first gear.


First mod should be exhaust. Wakes up the whole car. Look on the threads there are tons of sound clips, movies about each exhaust.


Enjoy and be safe.

Thank you.
I have been looking through the forum and am happy to see that the only mods available are really I/H/E. Don't want to spend too much money haha. In the coming months I am looking to install a JoeZ or Borla though.

Update: Driven by a 70 Year old man who "Traded up" to an RCF. Hate to sound like a dumbass, but I've driven the ISF on three seperate occasions and have not seen a Sport Button as other cars have. Where is it located?
Thanks,
CK
